The NSW Coalition’s shaky grasp on government is under threat as a key independent warns he will no longer guarantee supply and confidence if Premier Dominic Perrottet continues to make damaging statements about transgender children and sport.
Sydney MP Alex Greenwich has confirmed that he would withdraw his support for the government if Perrottet’s rhetoric about children’s sport continues.
The premier this week publicly weighed into the debate on excluding transgender people from women’s sports, triggered by inflammatory comments by the embattled Liberal candidate for Warringah, Katherine Deves.
He said he believed it was a matter of physiology that “girls should play sport against girls” and that people should be able to raise issues “without being cancelled”.
Perrottet reiterated the remarks on Thursday, telling a hearing of budget estimates he was entitled to an opinion, which he believed was “in line with fair-minded Australians”.
Greenwich has been crucial to the Coalition being able to govern in minority, but for the first time has threatened to withdraw his support for the government.
During budget estimates on Thursday, the premier said he was being unfairly characterised by Greens MP Abigail Boyd, who accused him of standing “on the side of the transphobes”.

When will this insanity end? The lies have been told so often – and for so long – that credulous fools now believe they are ‘truth’. There are no ‘trans’ people; and there is no ‘community’ more ‘vulnerable’ than children being groomed, gaslit and captured by child molesters who are hiding behind those unfortunates brain damaged by drugs (albeit unwittingly taken by their mothers in utero). Just who is pulling the strings of (not so) independent MPs Greenwich and Piper – both biological males who continue to refuse to see the harms this dangerous nonsense inflicts on women and children.
